Utilities hint.

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201505160001)
Java: 1.8.0_45; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.45-b02
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_45-b14
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; UTF-8; pl_PL (nb)

What does the hint "Utilities" mean? And it doesn't offer any fix.
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2015-05-19 13:10:04 UTC
I can't find anything similar in the standard hints - and can't reproduce on a simple code snippet as well. Are you sure the hint is not provided by some extra module you've installed ?
Comment 2 cezariusz 2015-05-19 13:20:12 UTC
I don't have any extra modules. The file comes from a module of a platform application. The only change I did was enabling project-specific hints in the module suite.
Comment 3 Jan Lahoda 2015-05-19 13:32:46 UTC
openide.util/src/META-INF/upgrade/Utilities.hint I guess.

Editor hint options

When I press Ctrl+1 or Alt+Enter, IDE only offers me to configure the hint, but when I accept the hint, it only opens main Hint Options (actually it should open suite options) and doesn't select any particular hint.

Fixed in several modules - jet-main#4a6a2300f9df
